License Question

[heuj]

Dear Adam,
thanks for publishing this great project! I am currently building my own device based on your design and am currently working on the PCB layout. Thinking about pushing it to github as well, however I am not sure which license to apply. In your schematic and source file I only found "This is an open source project and you are free to use any code you like. Please give credit.", the github project however says GPL. Not sure about the license of the timnolan project you cited.

I would be glad to know if I am free to choose another license (e.g. MIT) or have to stick to GPL.
Thank you very much!

Hi Heuj, On github I chose the license that was the least restrictive. I want everyone to learn and improve on the code and circuit design. All I ask is that you put my name and all of my contributors names in comments in the code. Happy making. Adam.
